2020 TSP Fundraising Campaign
Your donation makes a difference!
In fulfilling our mission of inspiring and empowering young people with vision loss to thrive, we truly value your support of our upcoming 2020/21 programs.
INSPIRE: Recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, we are working hard on scheduling our 2021 endurance challenge in Europe with world renowned ultra marathoner Scott Jurek joining the team to help guide Dan. In addition to an epic endurance run, we are lining up to visit schools working with children who are blind, raising expectations and demonstrating possibilities.
EMPOWER: This year, with your support we funded more than $61,000 in scholarships to 17 fantastic vision impaired students. In addition to providing financial assistance of up to $5,000 scholarships, we provide mentorship and peer connection to enhance our Scholars' ability to thrive. We believe education is the gateway to fulfilling employment. Many of our Scholars are the only student with a vision impairment in their classes. By bringing them together through the TSP Scholars Program, we are forming a community so they are not alone in taking on their challenge.
Here's what two of our Scholars have to say about the program...
"The TSP Scholars program was much more than just a scholarship program. Not only did I receive funds to support my college education, but I also benefited from valuable coaching and mentorship through monthly calls and resources provided by Dan and the other TSP Scholars."
-Matthew Turner, Senior at MIT
"The TSP scholars program has been the most valuable scholarship program I've had the honor of being a part of. While the monetary award is undoubtedly the key to unlocking the doors to my education, having monthly conference calls with industry leaders is the map to help guide me in the right direction."
-Gabe Mendez-Frances, Sophomore at University of Alabama, Huntsville
We can't do this without your support and truly appreciate your generosity.

Dan and TSP, it is truly an honor to support your efforts. The work you are doing has had a profound impact on me by opening my eyes to the other kinds of limitations that I put on myself even though I have no disabilities. You are truly inspiring.
